According to the Majority Report.

I've never listened to this particular program on AAR! Janene is an amazing and articulate speaker.

1. WH transcript
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/05/2005053...

THE PRESIDENT: I'm aware of the Amnesty International report, and it's absurd. It's an absurd allegation. The United States is a country that is -- promotes freedom around the world. When there's accusations made about certain actions by our people, they're fully investigated in a transparent way. It's just an absurd allegation.

In terms of the detainees, we've had thousands of people detained. We've investigated every single complaint against the detainees. It seemed like to me they based some of their decisions on the word of -- and the allegations -- by people who were held in detention, people who hate America, people that had been trained in some instances to disassemble -- that means not tell the truth. And so it was an absurd report. It just is. And, you know -- yes, sir.

3. The Arrogant Moran - what a scary thing
Edited on Tue May-31-05 06:36 PM by RobertSeattle
Says the wrong word, then arrogantly gives the wrong definition. The Bush Presidency in a sentence long microcosm.


To the WhiteHouse.Gov website I must give credit for not "filtering" these - they don't even add a "SIC"!

Didn't some reporters start incorrectly pronouncing "nucular" for his benefit? Same thing happened with "sexual HAIRassment" and "Abu Gahrahb"

6. Pahahaha!
I've always thought they gave him vocabulary words, or he had a calendar or something. Does Shrubbie use the internets? I figured it was the Readers Digest "word power" thingie.

10. It's not my icon
Given to me by another DUer when I was lamenting the lack of an Irony icon here. :sarcasm: isn't always appropriate. Am I the only one at DU that needs an Irony icon?

That means he "disassembled" his country into an unnecessary war...
